3. Operating Instructions

Once installed, the ACI 82293 Power Window Motor and Regulator Assembly operates in conjunction with your vehicle's existing power window switch. Pressing the switch in the 'up' or 'down' direction will activate the motor, causing the window glass to move accordingly. Ensure no obstructions are present in the window path during operation.

4. Maintenance

The ACI 82293 Power Window Motor and Regulator Assembly is designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. However, periodic checks can help ensure optimal performance:

• Inspect Window Seals: Ensure window seals are clean and free of debris. Worn or dirty seals can increase friction, putting strain on the motor.
• Lubrication: If the window movement becomes stiff, a silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the window tracks and rubber seals. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants as they can damage rubber components.
• Electrical Connections: Periodically check the electrical connector for corrosion or looseness.

5. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your power window, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Window Does Not Move:
  • Check the vehicle's fuse box for a blown fuse related to the power windows.
  • Verify that the electrical connector to the motor is securely attached.
  • Test the power window switch. A faulty switch can prevent the motor from receiving power.
• Window Moves Slowly or Jerkily:
  • Inspect window tracks and seals for obstructions or excessive friction. Clean and lubricate as necessary.
  • Check for any binding in the regulator mechanism.
• Grinding or Clicking Noises:
  • This may indicate an issue with the gears in the motor or the regulator mechanism. Professional inspection is recommended.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, professional diagnosis and repair may be necessary.
